Crafted for rugged adventures, this 1979 Jeep CJ7 proudly displays its black finish with the unmistakable boxy silhouette that defines American off-road capability. The fiberglass hard top with dual pop-up sunroof panels adds versatility for changing weather conditions, while the metal doors provide security and protection from the elements. Chrome steel Keystone wheels sized at 15 inches on all four corners give this Jeep a classic look, wrapped in aggressive 31x10.50R15 Yokohama Geolander A/T-s tires that extend beyond the plastic wheel flares. Front-end protection comes courtesy of a push guard with two auxiliary lights and tow hooks, while the rear sports a trailer hitch and mounts for fuel or water cans.
The black vinyl interior maintains the utilitarian spirit of this classic off-roader while providing necessary comforts. Bucket seats up front and a bench in the rear offer seating for passengers, with seatbelts throughout for safety. The rubber floor coverings are practical for the inevitable mud and dirt that comes with trail riding. A Kenwood CD player with auxiliary input and Kenwood speakers provide entertainment on the trail, while aftermarket volt and oil pressure gauges supplement the factory instrumentation. The fully padded roll bar adds both structural integrity and protection for occupants, completing the functional interior design.
Mechanical reliability comes from the 4.2L inline-six engine (258 cubic inches) with a two-barrel Carter carburetor delivering steady power through the three-speed manual transmission. The 2013 engine rebuild with only approximately 3,000 miles since completion ensures many more years of dependable service. Power steering and power disc brakes up front make this Jeep easy to control both on and off pavement. The Dana 20 front axle and AMC 20 rear axle, paired with solid axle suspension and leaf springs at both ends, provide the legendary Jeep durability and articulation needed for tackling rough terrain.
